Calix also introduced two new optical line terminal (OLT) cards to its Unified Access portfolio:


The E7-20 GPON-8x – With eight ports per card, the GPON-8x line card doubles the GPON port capacity of the E7-20 ESAP, allowing service providers to efficiently serve over 10,000 GPON subscribers from a single chassis at a 64-way split. The E7-20's two-terabit backplane and non-blocking throughput capacity combined with the company's 700GE family of ONTs allows any of these subscribers to receive up to 1 Gbps of downstream or upstream capacity, enabling a vast array of potential service options.


The B6-318 – This card features advanced high-density point-to-point GE technology, with 24 compact small form-factor pluggable (CSFP) ports that can serve 48 subscribers per card with symmetrical high-speed data services up to 1 Gbps. The B6-318 seamlessly connects to the 700GE family of ONTs and features two industry standards 10 Gigabit small form factor pluggable (XFP) ports and two SFP+ 10GE/GE ports.


Calix noted that more than 70 percent of its over 1000 customers globally are now deploying fiber access services across the B-Series, C-Series, and E-Series platforms.
